Best Answer

The transmission shifts through gears as your engine rpm increases and your transfer case engages and disengages your Jeep in and out of 4 wheel drive. Your transfer case also has gears for 4x4 high or low.

Will a c-6 ford transmission off a 2x4 work on a 1975 f250 4x4?

Not unless you plan on converting it to a two wheel drive - there is a difference between 2WD transmissions and 4WD transmissions, even of the same model - namely, the 2WD transmission will have an output which goes directly to a driveshaft yoke, whereas the 4WD transmission will have an output which goes into a transfer case, as well as a mounting surface for the transfer case which is not present on a 2WD transmission.


Can you change the bellhousing on 2003 gmc truck 4l60e transmission to a 1998 4l60e transmission from a Chevy astro van?

The bell housing should be the same. You're probably thinking of the other end of the transmission... there is a difference between the 4WD and 2WD transmission, where the 2WD transmission has an output which goes directly to the driveshaft, while the 4WD transmission has a mounting face for a transfer case, and the output goes into the transfer case... just find a 4L60E from a 2WD vehicle, and spare yourself a lot of hassle.
